A-nnnrentIY IA Natural death.

John Rankin. q COlored Citizen of
Yankton, Dies Alone i'm his Room
Apparently u Natural Death.
John w. Rankin Was found dead in
bed at ten o'clock this forenoon in his
bachelor apartment in Pennington's
block. He was lying upon his side in
an easy, natural position, with one hand
thrown over his face and the other hand
lying across his body. Blood was run-
ming from his mouth and the pillow
upon which his head was resting was
considerably saturated by the hem
morrhage. This flow of blood might
have been caused from internal fermen-
tation. The body had begun to de-
compose when found.
The deceased was last seen alive about
eight o'clock yesterday morning, though
he had not been to his boarding house
since Saturday night, when be took sup
per. He was at work Saturday and
complained of being tired. He went to
his room early in the evening. Yes.er.
day some of hia associates looked for
him on the streets. but did not 20 to his
room. This morning he was to
be at the Congregational church to
superintepd the laying of a carpet
and not appearing, q man who works for
him went to his room. Finding the
door locked and being unable to obtain
a response he climbed to the transom
and peered in. John was lying In bed
%motionless. The man then went to an
adjoining room. climbed out upon q low
roof, went to Johns window, opened il
and entered. He found John lying in
bed, addressed, as before described,
and his Sunday clothes were
lying beside the bed and
had evidently not been used yesterday
The door was opened and several of The
dead mans friends and the coroner
summoned,
There is nothing to indicate that the
deceased destroyed himself or that there
was any foul play. The room and it;
contents were as they would naturally
=, be with a nan living alone. Nothing
: in his recent conduct leads any of hi
associates to suppose that he would
commit suicide. He had been com
planning some about not feeling well o
late and about being easily exhausted b,
9 work or unusual exercise of any kind. l
" was.his habit to be alone considerable.
and but for his business engagement
Q is probable he would not have BEEF
